Really hard to say.
- Minorities swung quite a bit to the GOP, but there's too many excuses to know what the ultimate cause was. It could be a sign of things to come but it could also be an aberration. After all, Republicans completely squandered all the goodwill Dubya had with his impressive (In retrospect) Hispanic support in 2000 & 2004.
- Trump throwing a wrench into things by being Trump. Though at the same time, being a magnet for rural voters & Rust Belt voters.
- COVID overshadowing the entire election cycle.
- Record-high turnout that's likely to not be repeated in 2024.
- With 2022 being a BIDEN MIDTERM and all, I don't think we'll get many answers next year either (Outside of Georgia & maybe Arizona).
Final answer: 2020 was an unusual election in an unusual year. Currently, it's a frustrating election to analyze and I don't think we'll get the full picture for another few years. We'll get a much better read of the electorate in 2024 (Which could also better explain the 2020 election race)
